Peter Miller’s Latest Book Celebrates a “Lifetime of Vermont People”

Peter Miller. A Vermont photographer and author’s latest work.

It’s hard to think about Vermont without remembering its most precious natural resources – its noteworthy people. Peter Miller’s new book captures the essence of what we fondly remember about Vermont, it’s hard working, salt of the earth people.

For many of us Vermonters, the faces in Peter’s books bring back memories of our most recent ancestry. Each image represents a lifetime of hard work and limited means. These images help tell the story of life in Vermont’s rural communities. Today, much has changed in Vermont. Some will say for the better, while others will mourn the passing of days when hard work and perserverence defined the people of Vermont.

It’s always a pleasure to see Peter Miller’s book “Vermont People” on display at a Vermont bookstore. It will be even more exciting to see a companion piece, “Lifetime of Vermont People” displayed prominently along side. Download and read more this article about the book. You can also purchase Peter Miller’s books and photography from his website.

Vermonter.com was started back in the mid 1990's as a Vermont resource guide. Since then it has evolved into more of a quirky historical and unusual chronicle of off beat Vermont folklore, myths and legends. It's easy to create a Vermont resource but damn hard to corral all the "good stuff" in one place. But hey, I'm having fun! This website is best enjoyed on a dark, rainy day with a cup of coffee and a loyal dog (or cat) asleep at your feet. So enjoy and have fun. "There be WEIRD stuff here!" Comment below, if you dare!
